Taco del Sol — Restaurant in Missoula

Sadly this place is really going down-hill. I've been eating here off and on for 20 years and used to LOVE it. Staff downtown sitting on tables and buckets doing nothing but staring into their cell phones. Burritos made without cognizance of concepts like flavor. Not sure they even knew they were making food for customers, thought they were just making rent. Yes, you have to spread the sour cream and guacamole evenly or at least attempt to. You have to attempt to make sure the other ingredients are layered and the product is fresh. You probably shouldn't be trying to close at 630pm on a Friday when your sign says 8pm close. The lack of energy is evidenced by anyone who remembers lines out the door of TDS on Friday nights in years past. If I wanted a snooze button I'd live in Bozeman. You should have some level of hygiene too. I say that last line loving this place for being an island of counter culture and far from a germaphobe. Like most Missoula institutions this place has succumbed to the disease of lukewarm hipster apathy that has neither thought nor courage. Yes, I could tell all that from a burrito. Even the music smelled of some superficial Spotify funk playlist curated by a robot whose creator felt these rubes would hop on a Wild Cherry bandwagon if only because they dont know anything beyond it to...

Enticed by the fabulous smells coming out of the open door, a friend of mine and I stopped here for lunch. The menu is simple but interesting, kind of like fast food but not really. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the staff was extremely friendly. They did not have nachos which is my go-to dish, however, they said they could create a nacho like bowl with chips on the side. I chose to go meatless with black beans, lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, and rice. It was okay but something was missing. After my second bite I went up to the counter and literally said these are good but something is missing. The wonderful young man said try this and handed me a little plastic cup full of a creamy looking white sauce. I tentatively dipped a bit of my bean and veggie concoction into the dip and my taste buds exploded! Kudos to the creator of the white sauce as it was delicious! I dumped the whole little container over my veggie bowl, mixed it well, scooped some on a chip and pigged out! In addition to the excellent food, they have Huckleberry flavored...

Came here after the market today for the first time. The food was awful. I took one bite and couldn’t stomach another one. I ordered the beef tacos and my boyfriend had the steak, his were just as bad. The two ladies working behind the counter were nice but super low energy and seemed to not want to be there. We asked if there was anything they could do for us because we couldn’t eat the food and they said there was nothing they could do. 40$ down the drain and left hungry. Would not recommend. Edit- the store owner and I messaged privately and he was very kind and understanding of the situation. He offered us a refund and was accepting of the feedback. Thank you Dave for your hospitality it is greatly...
